Re: qt free for windows
by Markus Erlacher on Saturday 31/Jul/2004, @10:43

This is exactly what we do: non-commercial research in our institute, but based on a Windows platform.

Trolltech does not provide a GPL'ed Qt for Windows if I see this correctly. And we don't have the time and the money to invest in another platform or port it ourselves.
But I found a Qt/Win V2.3 on the Trolltech pages, so I think we just will work with this version, as it is free for Windows and not just an evaluation version.
But I think anyhow, that this is off-topic on a KDE forum. I just got here looking in Google for GUI development tools. Another GPL GUI Toolkit I found is Fox, and if Qt 2.3 does not satisfy us, we'll give them a chance.

Trolltech has a "Qt Educational License Request Form" at http://www.trolltech.com/forms/eduprogram.html stating "The educational license is to be used on school hardware and premises for educational purposes. If you are a professor/teacher and want to let your students use Qt/Windows in your class or course, just fill in the application form below." I guess this is what you were looking for?

Other than that there's also a more recent non-commercial version of Qt/Win, version 3.2, is included on the book "C++ GUI Programming with Qt 3", see http://www.trolltech.com/download/qt/noncomm.html
